Stranded in the middle of a hurricane
I've got an umbrella but nowhere to stay
Do I give up now or do I face the cold
I better get some boldness
Lookin' to the left I see it coming
I'm alone and I'm scared and it's heading my way
Do I run do I hide do I dare close my eyes
Do I face the fear inside
Time after time, Lord, I'll keep running back to You
Keep running back to You
I, I realize this time that I'll be fine
Even if the stars fell like rain
Even if tomorrow never came
Even if the world I know should crumble
Nothing's gonna stand in my way
Even if the sun left the sky
And even if these tears never dry
Even if the mountains fall and tumble
If what's left of me is taken
I will not be shaken
Landed in the middle of a desert
And I'm wondering why what keeps me alive
When the water I drink and the air that I breath is dry
Time after time, Lord, I'll keep running back to You
Keep running back to You
I, I realize this time that I'll be fine
Even if the stars fell like rain
Even if tomorrow never came
Even if the world I know should crumble
Nothing's gonna stand in my way
Even if the sun left the sky
And even if these tears never dry
Even if the mountains fall and tumble
If what's left of me is taken
I will not be shaken
Even in the darkest night
I know it'll be alright
The world is bound to change
But You always stay the same
You give me joy
You give me hope
You give me love
That doesn't change
Even if the stars fell like rain
Even if tomorrow never came
Even if the world I know should crumble
Nothing's gonna stand in my way
Even if the sun left the sky
And even if these tears never dry
Even if the mountains fall and tumble
If what's left of me is taken
I will not be shaken
(repeat)

This song is sooo powerful; it's one of my favorites on the album. It's about enduring through hard times, like a rock, and not being shaken because your foundation is stronger than the surrounding circumstances: Jesus Christ. I love the analogy in the first verse about having an umbrella for protection while outside in a hurricane. That is soooo the christian life, you know? (At least that's how it can feel....) P.S. If this comment looks familiar to anyone, it's because I accidentally posted it under "Suddenly" first.
